Hi Bram,

I have no experience with apt-proxy-v2 and its .conf, but this last line 
looks wierd to me. If I understand it right you are saying these 
packages in volatile can be found in testing. I think your sources.list 
should read:

deb http://localhost:9999/clamassassin/ volatile main contrib non-free
